Rain:
We run swimming practices in the rain (they are going to get wet anyways).
If there is lightning, swimmers are removed from the pool and may not re-enter the pool for 30 minutes. If there is 45 minutes or less of workout, the remainder of practice will likely be cancelled. During the 30 minutes, if there is another strike of lightning, the 30 minutes will then start again from that latest strike.
Sometimes, coaches will conduct Dryland in replace of swim practice during a lightning strike pause, but this will be determined by space available and conditions of the environmWe ent.
Heat:
We have swim practice in the extreme heat. Practice may be altered if both the air and the water are hot. We expect athletes to bring water and/or sports drinks to practice to stay hydrated and replace electrolytes. This is the responsibility of the athlete. We do not provide hydration options.
Cold:
We have swim practice in the cold. Our pools are heated year round with a thermostat to keep water between 78 – 82 degrees. There are issues at times with the heaters, so if the pool goes below 76 degrees, practice may be cancelled. An alternate Dryland workout may be provided, but that will depend on space available and conditions of the environment.
